More top venues have signed up to take part in Newcastle Wine Week, which is set to return on June 19-28.
The event gives people the opportunity to sample a range of top wines, either by the glass or by the bottle, at a 50% discount at a range of venues.
There are now more than 25 places which anyone who buys a Newcastle Wine Week wristband can take advantage of the special deals. Recent additions to the list of participating venues include Jesmond Wine Co, Carruthers & Kent, Gosforth Traders, Fuego and Rooftop Thirty Nine at Fenwick, Alan the B, El Coto, El Torero, Sachins, and Gotham Hotel.
They will join Michelin-starred House of Tides, The French Quarter, Kaltur at Dean Street and High Bridge Street, Dobson & Parnell, Gino D’Campo, Victor Indigo November, Dood, and Blackfriars.
The wristbands can also be used at Osters at Gosforth High Street and Lovage in Jesmond, as well as Pique, Gosforth Traders, Colonel Porter’s, Hotel du Vin, Jesmond Wines, Angel’s Share, and Las Casa Delicatessen.
The event’s creator, Leah Newman, from Whispering Wines, said: “We have the majority of Newcastle’s top bars and restaurants taking part, many of whom were involved in last year’s first event so have seen the value in it being repeated.
“The event offers a fantastic way for people to sample new wines at a huge reduction in cost as well as having the advantage of visiting so many brilliant locations. The response so far has been fantastic and I’m sure we going to have another incredible week on our hands.”
Wristbands for the event are £14.99 and are available at www.wine-week.co.uk
